Free photo estimate · No account

You don't notice it happening. That's the problem.

I'm Ben. I watched the top of my head thin for twenty years without ever knowing how far it had gone. You can't see a gradual change in your own mirror.

Two photos place it on the seven-stage scale. About a minute.

The thinking behind Densy

A follicle can be present and still produce less hair.

Densy's working model is that tissue around a root can stiffen over time, leaving a living follicle less able to produce a full hair. The checker estimates the pattern; it does not diagnose the cause.

You are trying to grow seeds in reinforced concrete.

Two hair follicles side by side. Left: a thick hair whose root is fed by many red blood vessels. Right: a thin hair whose root is squeezed by a grey ring of tissue, with its blood supply pinched.

Estimate your Norwood stage

How this works
Step 1 of 2 · Safety questions

Two questions first

Some kinds of hair loss need a doctor rather than a scale. These two questions are how we check.

After the estimate

A stage tells you how far it has gone. It cannot tell you whether your vertex is sterile or just dormant.

Two photos and a scale put you on a map. That is worth knowing, and it is where most people stop. They try something, wait six months, and have nothing to compare against. A Point Zero scan measures your scalp instead, so the next one can be compared to it.

Don't lose time and money at random, the way I did for years.

Start your guided Point Zero scan

The free estimate above works from whatever light and distance you happened to have. A guided scan controls both, which is the only way two scans months apart can be compared.

  • 01

    Counts the fine hairs

    Regrowth arrives as fine, pale hair long before it looks like hair. A scan separates that from full hairs and from empty pores, so the first real change shows months before a mirror would show it.

  • 02

    Zone by zone

    One score for a whole head hides where things are moving. Progress is reported per area, so you can see which parts are responding and which are not.

  • 03

    Comparable

    Same distance, same light, every time. That is what makes a scan months from now measurable against this one, instead of just a different photo.
